Patent EP-0205465-B1 (EP)
IPC: C02F1/34
Filed: 1985-11-22
Granted: 1989-08-23
Abstract: The flowing speed of a substrate through an anaerobic filter is determined by the formation time. The anaerobic formation time is reduced in dynamic anaerobic filters by the increase of the intensity of material transfer between the bacteria and the substrate. This method allows to increase the intensity of material transfer through a relative pulsatory movement between the substrate (S) and the biomass of bacteria adhering to a support material (7). The substrate (S) is introduced into the filtration chamber of the fermenter (1) through an inlet opening (3). A relative pulsatory movement is then imparted either to the substrate (S) or to the support material (7), or to both. The escape gas is exhausted through a gas outlet (6). The filtration chamber can be drained through the discharge opening (5). The fermenter can be operated in a plug flow mode. The pulse movement can be obtained mechanically (9, 10) or by using the escape gases.

Abstract: A preferably push button-actuated overload protective circuit breaker with bimetal cut-out is devised for being plugged into a flat female plug socket. The circuit breaker comprises a bimetal contact element and a fixed contact element besides each other and consisting each of an elongated punched-out part of substantially flat right parallelepiped shape. They have outer ends protruding out of a circuit breaker housing and lying with their flat longitudinal sections in the same plane, while their inner free ends inside the housing have their flat longitudinal sections lying in two different planes which are parallel with, but spaced from each other. A bimetal snap element is fastened at one end thereof, on the inner free end of the bimetal contact element and overlaps with its opposite slewable end, which bears a bimetal contact post, the inner free end of the fixed contact element and a fixed contact post thereon. In their middle regions, the bimetal and fixed contact elements are embedded positively in a form-stable base member made of injectable or castable synthetic electrically insulating material, which base member forms a part of the walls of the housing. At the region where the bimetal contact element protrudes from the base element to extend into the interior of the housing, it bears a weakened zone, e.g. a puched-out hole, as a bending zone being adjustable to a desired bend.

Abstract: Appareil et procédé pour constituer un compensateur amélioré à biréfringence et à effet focalisateur variable destiné à être utilisé à l'intérieur de la cavité du résonateur d'un laser capable de fonctionner en continu. Une paire de corps cylindriques de matériau optique (12A, B) ayant un indice de réfraction thermosensible sont couplés thermiquement à un échangeur thermique (14A, B) entouré par un matériau d'enrobage (16) qui ajoute ou extrait de la chaleur des surfaces extérieures des corps cylindriques afin d'établir à l'intérieur de ceux-ci des gradients thermiques et des contraintes dépendant du sens radial. L'échangeur thermique (14A, B) est alimenté en électricité par des conducteurs (20A, B) et infuse ou retire de la chaleur afin d'établir un gradient thermique utilisé pour créer un effet de lentille dynamique d'aspect opposé à celui de la barre laser qui corrige la divergence du faisceau laser émis. Le gradient de contraintes amène le corps compensateur à se comporter comme une substance biréfringente. La double réfraction du compensateur reconstruit effectivement le faisceau laser le traversant qui a été dépolarisé par l'action biréfringente de la barre laser elle-même. Le montage en tandem (48) de compensateurs à biréfringence et à effet focalisateur variable est coordonné par un capteur de température et par des organes de déclenchement (66, 68) qui détectent la température des compensateurs (50, 52) grâce à des thermocouples (60, 61) et qui sont couplés à l'échangeur thermique (14A, B) par des organes régulateurs (70, 72) et des conducteurs (20A, 20B). Ces organes régulateurs (70, 72) empêchent la surchauffe des compensateurs et permettent le maintien sans interruption de l'effet focalisateur et compensateur.

The outputs of the transition detectors (300-308) for the row address signals are summed in at least two logic stages (309-214) using CMOS logic gates (309-314) to generate the summation address signal for the row address. Similarly, the outputs of the transition detectors (319-325) for the column address signals are summed in at least two logic stages (326-331) using CMOS logic gates (326-331) to generate the summation address signal for the column address.

Abstract: A laser surgery device, used particularly for the keratotomy of the cornea, comprises a laser particularly a UV laser of which the beam may be applied to the tissue to be operated. A diaphragm (4) is arranged in a manner known per se in the laser beam path in order to limit the illuminated tissue area. In order to increase the field depth, which is an indispensable condition to succeed in carrying out a radial keratotomy of the cornea, the diaphragm is arranged between two converging optical elements (2, 3) which form a telecentred arrangement. In a preferred mode of execution, a UV laser beam is coaxially introduced in the beam path of a slot lamp of which the slot acts as a diaphragm. To set the diaphragm image in rotation, a rotary optical element (1) is arranged between the slot (4) and the tissue to be operated in order to rotate the beam around the optical axis (5).

Abstract: An improved device for testing the air permeability of an article, particularly felts and screens associated with the manufacture of paper products. The improved device incorporates a measuring channel traversed by air, and inserted into another cylindrical belt channel traversed by air, with both channels attached with their orifices to the test object. The fan wheel of an anemometer is placed inside the measuring channel to measure the flow rate, the air flow through the measuring channel being non-separating and irrotationally incident on the fan wheel. The measuring channel contains, in addition, sensor devices to determine the static pressure in the channel in order to enable a pressure difference control. The cylindrical belt channel and measuring channel are constructed in such a fashion that the flow rate and flow speed in the belt channel are approximately the same as the flow rate and flow speed in the measuring channel.

Granted: 1992-08-19
Abstract: On filling of e.g. liquid products into packing containers via a filling pipe it is of great importance that the valve should be capable of interrupting completely and effectively the flow of contents, since otherwise after-dripping product may soil the outside of the packing container and hinder the formation and sealing of the top of the same. Contents of high viscosity or those containing particles cause particular difficulties, since such materials easily stay behind on the outside of the valve and after the closing of the valve tend to drip onto the packing container. In one arrangement for a filling valve on a packing machine the after-dripping is prevented in that the outside surfaces of the valve which can come into contact with the contents are cleaned with the help of a pressure fluid during operation of the machine. To make this possible an arrangement in accordance with the invention comprises a filling valve 7 whose valve body 13 is provided with a channel 9 for the supply of pressure fluid and an outlet opening 15 situated at the lower end of the valve body 13 which conducts the pressure fluid and causes it to flow along the underside of the valve body so that any residues of the contents are effectively flushed away.
